Braxton Hicks contractions are irregular. They might go away when you change positions or when you drink a glass of water. Real contractions will get stronger and more frequent with time - they will feel like strong menstrual cramps. If you experience more than four contractions in an hour, you may be in true labour, and you need to get to hospital immediately. Also watch out for other signs like your water breaking or a bloody show. Keep monitoring your baby's movements too - there should be at least 10 movements in 2 hours.
